Teacher Charles Hadley Arrested for Soliciting Sex from Teen in Online Chat Room
In North Carolina, Charles Hadley, 29, a Southwest Guilford High School teacher, was arrested for soliciting sex from a teenager in an online chat room. The formal charges are “soliciting a child by computer.”
The investigation started this summer when detectives suspected Hadley of having inappropriate conversations online. Investigators stepped in and posed as a 15-year-old girl. Hadley fell for the bait hook, line and sinker. General conversation quickly lead to sexual questions. Then Hadley said he was going to try to meet with the teenager, but backed out of the meeting. Even though the visit never took place, the chats gave authorities enough evidence to arrest and charge Hadley.
Hadley pled not guilty via jailhouse camera. The judge reduced Hadley’s bond from $50,000 to $25,000 on two conditionns that he not use a computer or have unsupervised contact with children.
Hadley has worked since 2005 as a remedial teacher and in various capacities in the athletics department at Southwest Guilford High School. According to the school’s website, Hadley coordinates the behavior intervention and sports medicine programs at the high school. Hadley could use a little behavior intervention himself. Oh wait, that’s what the sheriff’s department has done!
School officials said that Hadley is on paid leave, and that appropriate backgrounds checks were done on him before he was hired.
Also, the sting that led to Hadley’s arrest was part of the county agency’s ongoing participation in the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, a program funded by the U.S. Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention. Beware internet predators! That teenage girl you’re grooming online is probably a male sheriff’s detective sitting around the office drinking weak coffee, eating stale donuts, and pissed off enough to drag your ass to jail.

I’m glad police are running these kinds of stings. I’m glad there’s some accountability. I still want to throw up after reading about people like this who work in the school system.

Yeah no doubt April…..Men who do this kind of thing don’t interst me much because sexualy speaking, I don’t hold men at a very high standard. Neither does anyone else.
So their bullshit exploits and stories concerning the sexual aberrations that they have done and commited don’t suprise me much. Or anyone else. So therefore I’m not really all that interested…..neither is anyone else to be honest.
Men are aggressive, destructive assholes. And this sort of thing is what everyone expects….or at the very least….is not suprised at. And is actualy bored by (hint, hint Teacher Smackdown)…..but keep the postings of women showing sexual aliveness pouring in and we will all keep a listening ear and reading eye focused…..interest will maintain status levels…..(hint-hint)
Uhm….just a hint.
